It's not quite art imitating life. More like art imitating what a handful of celebs wish was real life.
Alas, when Tom Cruise, Sarah Jessica Parker, Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, Tiger Woods, Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Kanye West, Mel Gibson, Paris Hilton, Bono and roughly 200 of their closest A-list friends take South Park to the bank (and court), it'll be in cartoon form only.
Such is the premise of the Comedy Central staple's forthcoming 200th episode, when every celeb ever mocked on the show will rise up, led by fearless drumstick-eating leader Rob Reiner, and file a class-action lawsuit against the town after Cartman & Co. lob one insult too many.
Of course, this is South Park, so we aren't expecting the happiest of endings, but Wednesday's milestone episode is probably worth coming out of the closet to watch.
